    C-32 CB Stern Thruster

    2020 C-32 CB stern thruster actuates and runs (and thrusts) for a couple of seconds, then blows the ANL fuse. This failure is repeatable. I disconnected the solenoid and the fuse didn’t pop, so it’s either the motor or something electrical when it draws load. Both fore and aft bilge pumps had...

    C-32 CB Legacy Owners Manual (2020)

    Maybe it's just having design configuration management beaten into my head for several decades, but I'm not a fan of the concept of an undated owner's manual that's "today's version" with an appendix for "prior models." For anyone who's been looking for a legacy version of the C-32 (mine is a...

    Using Portable Power Station to charge Batteries in Winter Storage

    I have an 2025 R25 that I have just locked away for the winter in a covered storage facility. The parasitic battery drains have been removed. The house, engine, and thruster batteries are currently topped off. Since I am inside this year the solar will not be providing a charge to the batteries...

    Adding batteries in parallel

    I want to even out the weight distribution in my 2019 R-23. Is there any issues I should be concerned about if I add 1 or 2 more batteries to the house bank? All are currently 110aH AGM. I would be adding the same batteries that are currently installed and installing them in the starboard...

    Ranger Tug r-23 inverter Reset

    I replaced the batteries on my 2020 Ranger Tug R-23 and I have not been able to reset the inverter to switch from shore power to battery power. I switched the reset under the port lazarette and the reset to the toggle switch to the left of the inverter. (see green button in lower right of...

    Victron DC/DC Charger

    Hi, with our C-288, there are port & starboard Orion-TR Smart 12-12-30 DC/DC isolated chargers. My understanding is that the Yamaha F250 outboards will create up to 70A from each alternator. Are the DC/DC chargers undersized and thus not maximizing charge capacity? Thank you

    R27 outboard fan switch?

    On my 2023 RT27 (outboard) there is a switch on the dash marked “fan”. When turned on the switch illuminates but I can detect no fan activation or anything else. Can you tell me where the purple with white stripe wire marked “defrost” that connects to this switch leads to? Since there is...

    Ranger 2015 R31 ProMariner Combi 2500 QS

    Hi Gents! My Inverter/Charger has died. I read the previous threads and I see most have replaced this model with a plug and play ProMariner 2500PS. I can’t find any for sale. Is there something else I can replace this with that is simple to install (plus and play too)? Thanks so much! Rob

    2019 R23 Solar Controller Location

    My HIN is US-FML12311F819. I have looked everywhere for this. I see the meter for it next to the electrical panel under the rear table settee but I have looked all over for the controller and cannot locate it. In the cockpit port side locker with the batteries, I have a battery charger along...

    Outdoor Rocker Switch / Lighting Issues 2024 R025

    Gang, I have another issue I am hoping someone can help steer me on. The outdoor lights are acting up. The stern underwater lights no longer turn on, and the outdoor lights work but only if the stern light switch is turned off. And at that, the outdoor lights seem oddly dim. I am guessing it...

    How to safely remove this panel at the helm.....

    Hi - I searched for this answer from a previous boat owner and haven't seen it. I need to remove this panel safely so I can re-attach it with no damage - as I need to reconnect the electrical wires underneath this to the helm USB power port. They are disconnected, and I can't get my fingers...

    2015 R-21EC bilge sensors

    I found 2 sensors floating in the aft bilge. I know one attaches to the clip on the pump. I suspect the other must be attached to the wood block? Which is which? My guess is that the one with just 2 wires is the alarm switch and goes on the wood block. And the one with 4 wires is clipped to...

    Adding LiFePO4 to Battery Bank

    I recently purchased a used 2024 R-25, less than 100hrs engine hours and have a new LiFePO4 battery I’d like to install into my battery bank. Is it possible to install the LiFePO4 without compromising the integrity of the other three AGM’s? If so, should the LiFePO4 connected to the engine or...

    Cutwater 32 Battery charging question

    I am a newbie with a 2023 cutwater 32. I would like to know if the outboard starter batteries are being charged while connected to shore power if the battery switches are in the OFF position. Or, do they need to be in the ON position for charging to occur? I think the batteries charge while the...
